Thanks, I actually lucked out - those are standard American Walnut facings.

Beautiful! Any guess what your ETA is?

Paul said Feb/March, the neck finish is the last remaining step to do before assembly. If it arrives before the second week of March it will be a little bit faster than the 22 months I was quoted at order time.

Nice!
Mine is possible just ahead of yours and a Feb delivery date

It certainly comes at more than just a financial price. I am grounded and can’t leave the house unless it’s for gigs. Even worse is the fact that I am expected to have zero urges of even looking at other Wals. I’m just not sure I can handle that kind of commitment!

The red one was “the straw that broke the camels back” so to speak. She did wear my Wal shirt yesterday so I think she is coming around though...
Either that or I’m behind on the laundry.

I warned my girlfriend that I plan on ordering a MKIII 4 string In a year or so if the pound doesn't skyrocket. I got a quote on the specs so far $9,990 US! I'm being somewhat fiscally responsible, I plan on paying off my car before I commit

[mikezimmerman]

Lovely - congrats! Is that an ebony board? I'm wondering how the CITES aspect will work with my rosewood board...

 

[Highfox]
